Subject: [PATCH 5.14 596/849] video: fbdev: chipsfb: use memset_io() instead of memset()

From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@...roup.eu>

[ Upstream commit f2719b26ae27282c145202ffd656d5ff1fe737cc ]

While investigating a lockup at startup on Powerbook 3400C, it was
identified that the fbdev driver generates alignment exception at
startup:

This is due to 'dcbz' instruction being used on non-cached memory.
'dcbz' instruction is used by memset() to zeroize a complete
cacheline at once, and memset() is not expected to be used on non
cached memory.

When performing a 'sparse' check on fbdev driver, it also appears
that the use of memset() is unexpected:

  drivers/video/fbdev/chipsfb.c:334:17: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
  drivers/video/fbdev/chipsfb.c:334:17:    expected void *
  drivers/video/fbdev/chipsfb.c:334:17:    got char [noderef] __iomem *screen_base
  drivers/video/fbdev/chipsfb.c:334:15: warning: memset with byte count of 1048576

Use fb_memset() instead of memset(). fb_memset() is defined as
memset_io() for powerpc.
